Changing the maximum number of load sharing paths

1. Enter the configure terminal command to access global configuration mode.
   

   device# configure terminal

2. Enter the router isis command to enter IS-IS router configuration mode and enable IS-IS on the device.
   

   device(config)# router isis
   

3. Enter the address-family ipv4 unicast command to enable ISIS address-family IPv4 unicast configuration mode.
   

   device(config-isis-router)# address-family ipv4 unicast
   

4. Enter the maximum-paths command and specify a value to specify the number of paths IS-IS can calculate and install in the IP forwarding table.
   

   device(config-router-isis-ipv4u)# maximum-paths 7
   

The following example specifies that the number of paths IS-IS can calculate and install in the IP forwarding table is 7.

device# configure terminal
device(config)# router isis
device(config-isis-router)# address-family ipv4 unicast
device(config-router-isis-ipv4u)# maximum-paths 7
